Nebula Award nominations close this weekend, and BSFA Awards voting closes Friday. Submitted for your approval: one horrible shapeshifting monster (and her girlfriend). If you enjoyed my little book, I'd be honored if you would consider it.

One thing that isn't getting talked about but should be is how everyone getting fired by Elon's barely pubescent troll army is actually being fired by AI. They aren't deciding shit. They're having an algorithm decide who to fire and do the firing for them automatically.

“If signed into law, the bill would ban AI from being used to deny a medical claim or from denying a prior authorization needed for ‘medical necessity, experimental status or any other reason that involves the use of medical judgment,’ the bill states.”

We got an extension from Makeship!! One more week to try and make our froggy boy real!

The thing I discover more and more in my career is that all the things “experts” told me not to bother covering are the things that do really well, and all the stuff they told me to focus on bombs.

Making Avowed into a culture war issue is a stretch even for those guys. It sold well. Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 sold and reviewed well too. Not sure what people want. Even if you think it's mid, which I disagree with, the logic behind their weird conspiracy theory is a huge stretch.

Another day, another couple texts threatening to send me to jail if I do not send a random email address money for highway tolls.

I’ve used women’s bathrooms, exclusively, for 20 years. Number of times anything has happened as a result: 0 People don’t actually care about this. The number of busybodies in the world who would do anything about it is vanishingly small.

today I tackle the most important part of any game’s development: extremely low poly rat

NEWS: In USDA, multiple people have been asked to report the names of LGBTQ employee resource group leaders to higher-ranking officials, according to interviews with workers and a document reviewed by Mother Jones. + similar in the Department of the Interior

I was critical of the CDC's response to the bird flu under the Biden administration. But even then, despite problems, the CDC regularly briefed the public on the situation. No briefings since Jan 20. Press releases have halted, too.

I can't get the new Worthikids animation out of my head. Their Casey Kasem voice is so spot on and the delivery is hilarious.

LGBTQ federal workers say they're terrified they're about to be fired for their gender identity, sexual orientation, or past efforts to support other queer and trans employees—in other words, a second Lavender Scare. Honored to have their trust with this story: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

From Ukraine to Maine, defenders of democracy are standing up and speaking out. And the people are responding. My write-up on the state of the resistance: https://buff.ly/3ETGLVZ

Oh NO. Lmaooo. Dems. Please fucking clean up your own house. Maybe now we know why Kamala's campaign went all in on Cheney and stopped saying weird. We had literal voting Republicans running her campaign.

1. Nearly a century ago, Nazis burned trans books to usher in fascism. Now, Trump is doing the same, digitally burning all records of transgender people and striking the community from records. This must be seen for what it is: a move towards atrocity. Subscribe to support my journalism.

All is not lost at NPR! "But NPR has obtained a State Department document detailing that Biden's State Department planned to spend just $483,000 in the 2025 fiscal year on buying electric vehicles and $3 million for supporting equipment, like charging stations." www.npr.org/2025/02/24/n...

But killing a mass murdering CEO is unmitigated evil.

Yes, yes, share with my your favorite versions of Charlie Chaplin's Great Dictator video.

Do people really think the kind of racism that fires that many people just starts with Trump ? Are they gonna make me listen to another all white panel on the “rise of white supremacy” And claim it’s just a coincidence when white media people only answer other white people

I hate that this is happening, but I have now seen three people with mutual aid requests that take the same format that have made me suspicious. They look like this:

Today, February 24, in 1989, FBI agent Dale Cooper enters the town of Twin Peaks for the first time (Twin Peaks, "Northwest Passage" s01e01, 1990)

extend the spehere of empathy to men and eliminate algorithmic media so ... we're fucked lol good luck everyone.

Wrote this barely a week before Biden dropped out, and wow, I hate how often I am vindicated by current events

Moonlit drink

I mean, they're just a group of fucking larpers, this is kidnapping?? you can't just... abduct someone???

I was watching a Making of Who Framed Roger Rabbit and that movie is literally this. Time and money in exchange for some amazing art. Is something hard? Will it take more time? Is it what's best for the project? Ok! Put more time and effort in.

Feeling stuck... this isn't moving at all... Can someone make this move? Urgent, safety is an issue. Pls. #helpsky #mutualaid #Disability #TBNC #Communitycare💸💞 #signalboost #maboost #BIPOCMA #BlackMA #Blacksky please don't ignore me? 🥺

If I was a shareholder at Tesla, which has tanking sales even during soaring interest in EVs, I might have questions about the CEO clearly not doing any work at the company and being on meth. I know the actual shareholders are all dumbies and true believers, but I'm just saying

I have had the honour of working with Leona on Stations and Starships. Her guidance has been invaluable. She’s gently and respectfully challenged me in ways that have helped me to grow as a person and as an artist. I recommend her skills wholeheartedly. (She’s also a very cool human! :D)

Remember to hit the applicable cameras first when doing this 🙂

It is insanely obvious that Elon Musk is illegally exercising the powers of a principal officer of the United States in violation of the appointments clause
